Feckin luck is hanging  out of City. Forest hit  the post three times.

Should just have gave them the trophy today , save them coming back

3 finals in a row.. I think them and Wrexham have achieved some records this year.. wouldn't be surprised to see the Wrexham manager and team win all the plaudits this year

Would like to think Crystal Palace will beat them in the final but I doubt it.
An FA Cup Win and Top 4 wouldn't be the worst season at all for Man City and you'd expect them to be back full force next season.

Palace can be brilliant  one day,  brutal  the next.  City  will no doubt bore their way to  a jammy win .

[Capt Pat]

City have picked a very attacking team with no real central midfielders. I wonder how well that will work for them?

[AustinPowers]

Would hope Palace  will win but no doubt Palace will hit the post 3 times , before City grab a late Jammy  winner (de bruyne)

Think Palace got away with one there. Had Henderson not batted that ball towards the corner, surely Haaland had a great chance to roll it in?

Hope Palace hold on though!

Is that the   first penalty save in a final since  big Dave Beasant from Aldridge?

Not sure, but could be as vital.

Just made a great save from Doku.

Not bad for a man who arguably shouldn't be on the field!

Didn't Linekar miss one in '91 v Notts Forest..
Who missed? Watching Galway-Dublin... when I'm not checking this!!

Took it because Haaland had missed a few.

Yeah, I've the Galway-Dublin game on the iPad and the cup final on the tv.

Usually don't watch the cup final if Liverpool aren't in it, but I'd like to see Palace win a trophy.

Palace hanging in there with their 19% possession. And as I type they make it 2-0.   Goal ruled out for offside it stays 1-0

Palace 1-0 winners.  3rd time lucky in a FA Cup final.

Club 115 beat again. Oh well.
